Stay Faraway So Close Tabs

(ver. 1)
Flyleaf
This was not created by me. Stay (Faraway, So Close) is a cover of U2.

This is the acoustic version of Stay (Faraway, So Close!) that U2 played on
their Elevation tour DVD. It’s drastically different from the original and
sounds better in my humble opinion.
